We are happy to announce the awardees of our 2020 HNA Fellowships. This year, for the first time, we have awarded both pre-doctoral and post-doctoral fellowships, in order to continue our efforts to support emerging scholars in our field.
Pre-Doctoral Awards:
Elizabeth Mattison, PhD candidate, University of Toronto
For the final archival research needed to complete her study of wills in Liège for the final chapter of her dissertation: Reforming Sculpture: The Prince-Bishopric of Liège, 1468–1566. The dissertation explores how the Protestant Reformation, iconoclasm, and the immigration of artists revised the understanding of sculpture taking the Prince-Bishopric of Liège and analyzes how choices of form and style, as well as the writing of art history in the sixteenth century, negotiated the conception and role of sculpture.
